String To Byte Array

Converts a string into an array of unsigned bytes.

Inputs/Outputs

datatype_icon

encoding

The character encoding the node uses to convert the input.

UTF-8 Converts the input using UTF-8 encoding.
UTF-16 Converts the input using UTF-16 encoding.
Extended ASCII Converts the input using extended ASCII encoding.
datatype_icon

string

String you want the node to convert.

datatype_icon

error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

Default value: No error

Standard Error Behavior

Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

error in does not contain an error error in contains an error
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.

If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.

If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.
datatype_icon

unsigned byte array

Converted array.

The first byte in the array has the character code of the first character in string, the second byte has the second value, and so on.
datatype_icon

error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
